Yo KRS is cool.... And he makes some good points in that...

But underground aint that esoteric.. All it is is when you make music that isnt mass appeal and cant sell to a real large audience.....

Its shit now a days... Rappers dont see the line between 'selling out' and being in the 'commercial scene'.. The commercial scene is just the larger scale sector of the music business. Being commercial doesent say anything about your music, all it means is that you appeal to a LARGER audience.

A lot of rappers dont have the talent or good music taste to be able to appeal to audience as large as what the mainstream requires. These are called underground rappers.. And over time these underground dudes are who is feeding all this info to the fans and now a days its gotton to the point where your average moron believes that if you go commercial your selling out automatically.. Which cant be further from the truth.

Mother fuckers got their entire game twisted. It IS possable to have a style that is mass appeal but stays true to your message. This is why Tupac got to the point he is at. Theres a lot to live up to and the problem with the music industry is there is a lot of simpletons out there that cant see it from a bigger picture and therefore they just go with what their told by other morons and dont really work shit out properly till their a good 10 or so years into their careers and it becomes too hard to change because they have to live up to an image............
